Journal Entry 1 by Diabetes-3136 from Croydon, Victoria Australia on Saturday, August 06, 2011

Illustrated by Quentin Blake.

Book purchased today at the Billanook Primary School pre-loved childrens market for special release.

From back cover:
"Matilda is an extraordinary girl. She is sensitive and brilliant. Even before she is five years old she has read Dickens and Hemingway, Kipling and Steinbeck. Matilda's gormless parents are neither sensative nor brilliant. They think Matilda is just a nuisance, and treat her as a scab - a scab to be endured until the time comes to flick her away.

As if this isn't enough, Matilda has to cope with the odious headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, who terrorizes the whole school, including Matilda's beloved class teacher, Miss Honey. When Matilda is attacked by Miss Trunchbull one day, she suddenly discovers she has an extraordinary power and realizes she can make trouble for the monstrous grown-ups in her life."

Listed as #328 of *1001 Children's Books You Must Read Before You Grow Up* and available for friends of '1001KidsLibrary'.
